Turn On the Bright Lights [Matador, 2002]
They bitch because everybody compares them to Joy Division, and they're right. It's way too kind, and I say that as someone who thanks Ian Curtis for making New Order possible. Joy Division struggled against depression rather than flaunting it, much less wearing it like a designer suit. What's truly depressing is that, just as the hairy behemoths of the grunge generation looked back to the AOR metal they immersed in as teens, these fops tweak the nostalgia of young adults who cherish indistinct memories of much worse bands than Joy Division, every one of them English--Bauhaus, Ultravox, Visage, Spandau Ballet, Tears for Fears. At a critical moment in consciousness they exemplify and counsel disengagement, self-seeking, a luxurious cynicism. Says certified British subject Peter Banks: "Emotions are standard and boring. I'd like to find another way to live." That's thinking either big or very small. C+

these guys had some awful album covers during the height of their popularity

>>126928395
this fag is so insufferable. he insists upon himself

>>126928395
a majority of his reviews are just him talking about himself or how interesting he is or how above it all he is

>>126928420
>>126933059
What is there to say? It's boring and contrived, much like the music of The National.

>>126933152
Neither are contrived

>>126928395
why is /mu/ obsessed with these obscure reviewers that have never amounted to anything meaningful?

ITS DIFFERENT NOW THAT IM POOR AND AGING

>>126928395
wow he barely talked about the album

>>126922189 (OP)
The lengths these bands will go to get a commercial or sponsorship deal.

>>126933152

>>126941152

>Men don’t hit the w-…
The what? Don't hit the what??? Tell me, nigger.

>>126943958
Thanks
>>126952139
Yes and no.
His funk is unmatched, however, Kessler wrote almost all of the music, so there's that.

Also, I'm very happy to see my efforts to bring Interpol back into /mu/'s catalog fruitful.

>>126928395
Do people actually care about the opinions of critics? Listen to shit yourself and stop depending on some crusty old faggot or some estrogen guzzler for your opinions.

>>126954604
yup, thanks for spamming this shitty band

>>126933152
don't you ever compare interpol to the cocksucking national

>>126954654
the fuck’s your problem?

>>126922189 (OP)
the middle part in The New with the guitar pitch changes goes on for too long, it should’ve transitioned into something else once he started singing again

50, 56, and 47. The wall for men is quite forgiving, maybe not for Paul Banks though. Was this guy tanning?

I think we might be back banks chads

>>126959593
It literally insists upon itself.
Btw Carlos D literally put his dick out on that one.

>Christgau is best known for his terse, letter-graded capsule album reviews, composed in a concentrated, fragmented prose style featuring layered clauses, caustic wit, one-liner jokes, political digressions, and allusions ranging from common knowledge to the esoteric. His writing is often informed by leftist politics (particularly feminism and secular humanism).
